What is a heat pump?

A heat pump provides all-in-one heating and cooling for perfect year-round comfort. Not only that, it operates more than 3x efficiently compared with a standard furnace.

Why upgrade your home’s heating and cooling with a heat pump?

Heat pumps offer an energy-efficient alternative to furnaces and air conditioners for all climates. Like your refrigerator, heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from a cool space to a warm space, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer. During the heating season, heat pumps move heat from the cool outdoors into your warm house. During the cooling season, heat pumps move heat from your house into the outdoors.

Because they transfer heat rather than generate heat, heat pumps can efficiently provide comfortable temperatures for your home.

Why are heat pumps considered better than a furnace or cooling-only air conditioner?

A single heat pump is able to provide both heating in winter and cooling in summer, keeping your home comfortable year-round. All of our heat pump selections come with state-of-the-art inverter technology, which maintains even temperatures throughout your home for exceptional comfort.

Save on Heating Bills.

In winter, instead of “burning” fuel to create warmth, heat pumps “extract” heat from the cold outdoor air to heat the inside of your home. By transferring heat instead of creating it, heat pumps are able to heat your home over 3x more efficiently than conventional furnaces. As a result, a heat pump can pay for itself and pay dividends on your heating bill for many years to come.

A new heat pump can cost between $9,000 to $15,000 depending on the size of your home, energy-efficient ratings, brand name, and the type of heat pump you install.

What is the difference between heat pumps and furnaces?

Heat pumps and furnaces heat your home – but in different ways. The most significant difference between furnaces and heat pumps is that furnaces create their own heat.
